Hey guys, I am trying my best to be there tomorrow with my family. Our house just burned Tuesday a week ago and we lost everything. We are staying in a Motel right now until we get some place to live. Hope to see everyone. Miss U All !!

I talked to Brenda and found out some things she needs. Someone that she works with has offered a place to stay but it does not have any furnishings. If you have any thing they can use she works at the Sheriff's office (693-0333).

children sizes:

Trent (12 yrs.) - 18 to 20 shirt & pant, 12 shoe

Cody (20) yrs) - 32 x 34 pant, Med shirt, 12 shoe


Gary (husband) - 33 or 34 x 32 pant, Lrg shirt

Brenda - 12 pant, 12/14 shirt, 8 shoe

Hi Brenda-
So sorry to hear of your loss, it's truly devastating. My family and i have just moved to another house and are planning on having a garage sale, instead i would love to offer anything you might want. It's not much, but it's a lot compared to what you have now. I can remember in '84 when our house burned to the ground also. We take for granted the little things in life, we didn't even have a toothbrush to use. I live between Carthage and Henderson so, it wont be too much trouble acquiring the items. You are in my prayers. Stay strong and remember: mother's bend, they don't break. Thank God, you still have your beautiful family, lean on them. You are in my prayers.

At the evening event, our class passed Patrick Henigan's cowboy hat around and collected $600 for Brenda and her family. Again that shows you how close our class is and how strong that "group effort" can be. Hope it helps you Brenda and thanks for showing me all your dance moves. On the way home I was stepping them out in my head. "to the left to left....to the right to the right"

Man u guys just don't realize how much we appreciate what the class of '87 did for us! I held my tears in, still once again trying to stay strong when Aaron announced what you guys did for us and how much money was gathered. I can't express how much it is appreciated and needed. Thanks to each and every one of you, no matter if you were able to give or not, i know we are in your prayers. And that means alot to us! I Love All Of You Guys and Gals! And once again my family and I appreciate everything U all have done. If anyone wants to get in touch with me, I can be reached on my cell @ (903)754-9737. Thanks again! Shawntel you are very welcome for the dance moves. Now you can walk-it-out, sea-walk,pop-lock and drop it. You go girl. By the way I got a PHONE CALL on you after you left the reunion. I believe you were on your way home. CALL ME !!! HA-HA. You know what I'm talking about.
